English

Thanks for your response. Yup, English is a definite must in the world these days. And those are all very good suggestions to effectively learning the English language. I usually encourage the students in the institute I manage to pick up on those habits both inside and outside of the classroom. Using different mediums to learn keeps them entertained and encourages them to have fun with English.

Yes, English is very substantial language, anywhere you will go, only this language can we use to communicate and interact with other nationals .:)

Thanks for your response. Yup, English is universal, which makes it easier for anyone to travel and be able to communicate with one another. Almost every country's tourist hosts have some basic English skills to accommodate tourists. It is good that it is taught and learned at a young age when our brains are just developing, and it's much quicker to pick up on certain information, especially a language. But the thing is that it needs to be constantly practiced to ensure that it is not forgotten. That is a good way to practice, as you have mentioned, to have foreign friends who speak English.

Thanks for your response. I agree. It's definitely a global language. That's why the other countries are placing it into their school curriculum. Although the kids may have a hard time, I'm sure they'll learn to get a hang of it eventually. It will be an asset for them later in their lives. I think learning any language is an asset, but of all the languages, English is the most useful because everyone knows at least a little bit of it. And foreign countries are encouraging their people to learn it as well for business and tourism.

Thanks for your response. Yup, I agree that foreigners should learn English. English is definitely a universal language. English institutes are a growing industry in education these days. There is a high demand for native English speakers to teach foreigners to become fluent in the language. As in learning any language or any other skill, practice is a must. Without practice, you'll easily forget what you've learned. I encourage you to to continue with your mindset, and learn easily and effectively by surrounding yourself with English speakers. Even if you are not sure if you're speaking correctly, you learn by making mistakes and being corrected. =)

As a matter of fact, Koreans are our main customer base at the institute I manage. Hehe. It's quite an experience to see/hear their inability to read/write/speak when they first arrive, and then very rewarding to personally see/hear the difference in their fluency and confidence with their newly acquired English skills.
